All the crap in front of the entrance door is a not too subtle statement about his attitude toward the little people. A Rauner Welcome Mat

Uh oh. International Women Day. What will be cut today?

Maybe if Madigan comes back down he can bring Bruce Rauner an iron for his pants.
- Harry - Tuesday, Mar 8, 16 @ 12:09 pm:
Rauner reminds me of Blago insisting the Genl Assy be in session when they had nothing to do.
I’m quite sure that if there is a breakthrough, someone can call a special session and have quorums back in action in 72 hrs.
In the meantime he should just give it a rest.

Did the Governor just now look at the House calendar that was released months ago? How is it shocking?
- BBG - Tuesday, Mar 8, 16 @ 12:13 pm:
Ugg. He needs a dry cleaner to clean and press those pants. How can you believe someone dressed so sloppy? He’s suppose to be a billionaire - get an iron or something!
- Because I said so.... - Tuesday, Mar 8, 16 @ 12:15 pm:
Rauner says Duncan and Phillips introduced a “real” bill regarding higher ed funding.
Real bill? Too bad it didn’t mention one university the bill would fund and when asked, Duncan listed only 4. Yeah, that is a real bill.

“The pressure comes from the people, not me…”
And this is our Governor? He’s missing the leadership element of being a governor.

He doesn’t know if he gave 2 MILLION dollars? Are you kidding me? Even he isn’t that rich.
- Big Joe - Tuesday, Mar 8, 16 @ 12:20 pm:
My thoughts are the same as BBG. The guy has TONS of money, is the Governor of our fine state, and he looks like he slept in his clothes last night. Get someone to tell him that he looks like a governor that can’t get anything done in his state!!
- Mouthy - Tuesday, Mar 8, 16 @ 12:26 pm:
He had the “General Jack D. Ripper” look today. Good thing there’s no drinking contests out there that have the word “Madigan” as the “take a shot” trigger…

What makes a bill a “sham bill?” If it passes both chambers and is signed into law, won’t it be in effect? Why are some bills shams?
- Mama - Tuesday, Mar 8, 16 @ 1:32 pm:
It sounds like Rauner’s peeps are afraid they are being hung out to dry at the polls for not being allowed to vote on bills this past year. What does Rauner do? He blames the Dems.
- Mama - Tuesday, Mar 8, 16 @ 1:33 pm:
A sham bill is any bill the other side does not want to vote on.

So, he wore a tie today, but repeated the same old tired excuses and whines. Everything is WRONG. Not doin’ their job. There’s no money. I ignore polls.
He’s being frustrated. I get it. But he is also being very much the hypocrite. He doesn’t want to be ignored, but he ignores the “common” people (EIU presser) who he wants to have champion him! He says these no money, but it will magicalky apoear for bills he wants votes called in. And to top it off, his agencues are still writing and sugning contracts for FY17 while scheming to not pay FY16 contracts and obligations.
